Red Room Outages
Blog Post by Michael Seidel - Dec.16.2012 - 11:06 pm
I don't know what's going on but I've had issues accessing RR for the last five days.
The outages last three to five hours, it seems. It's frustrating; I receive notification that someone has posted something new but I can't read it. The new posts pile up in my inbox. I can't comment for the same reason, or add anything new. I've sent them a message, asking about it, as I don't have issues with any sites. I didn't see anything on the Red Room home page about outages. All that said, is anyone else experiencing problems? Has R2 put out a notice that I missed?
Cheers

Hmmm..... no such thing on my end Michael. Could this be another case similar to the printer problem :--) Have your wife's cookies and a beer!
Well...I looked for a reboot button....
If you mean that it's another possible obsession, that's always true. A co-worker and I were chatting about how much we dislike troubleshooting our software and hardware at home. It started as a joy, years ago - building computers, reverse engineering software, writing programs - but now it's a task. Yet we can't stop ourselves from taking it on.
I did have cookies, from the exchange - some excellent coconut thumb print cookies with a dollop of salted caramel in the middle - and a small glass of port.
Thank you for reading and encouraging me! Cheers
The system has always been
The system has always been just a bit wonky, but nothing new for me.
I haven't received email notifications in years. Thought it wasn't available any more unless you were a premium member, and I am anything but premium. Good luck with it!
Interesting, Jodi ~
I have other wonky issues with it, too, but this was something totally new and strange.
It's disappeared today, thank the computer spirits. Best of all, I didn't need to do anything.
Thanks for coming by and commenting. Cheers
Problems accessing Red Room
Hi Michael,
First, let me apologize for any messages that might have gotten lost. We do our best to respond to each one promptly, and I'm so sorry if that didn't happen in this case.
I'm not sure what's happening here. I'm going to email you separately so we work out a way to respond more quickly when you see this happening. I appreciate you bringing this to our attention!

Hey Huntington,
Thanks for reaching out via email. No problems today! I've done nothing different but now there's no issue with accessing Red Room. If you did or found something, please let me know, if you don't mind. Just curious.
Thank you for your efforts and concern. Cheers
